Halloween claws - Artsy Wednesday

 

This week’s challenge is of course Halloween!!

You might notice that my nails suddenly grew dramatically, but they are borrowed feathers so to speak…

The paintings are however as always my own freehand nail art. The base color is Catrice C04 Wild, Wild West-side. The dark sky is sponged with China Glaze Meteor Shower, the fine micro glitter is China Glaze Fairy Dust and I used acrylic colors for the nail art. The thumb is a pumpkin/Jack o'lantern in a field and it’s sunset, the sky is darkening, the index is ghosts flocking over the witches brew, that is coocking over fire. The middle is a young witch with lip stick, and in her world her nose, the warts and her chin and looks makes her a really hot chick! The ring finger is s cob web and the bats are flying on my pinkie.

Check out what the other girls in Artsy Wednesday did in this weeks challenge:

Go Pink Wednesday - week 5

 

 

In this last week of ”Go pink Wednesday” breast cancer awareness I have chosen the same base color for all my 3 designs, it’s China Glaze Rich & Famous. I did however top each of the nails with different effects. The first from the left has a coat of Sinful Pinky Glitter and the tip is sponged with Models Own Purple Haze. The next a coat of Kiko 234 (Sparkle Touch coll.) and the tip is sponged with China Glaze Atlantis. The last has a coat of Essence Party Princess and the tip is sponged with Sation Ego Friendly. The rest is as usual painted freehand with acrylic craft colors, and the top coat is Seche Vite.

An abstract tardy tart...

 

 

.... annnnd my right hand - tadaaaa ;)

The base color is Sation Tardy Tart, a gorgeous purple neon. With the bottle brushes in each of the following colors I created an abstract pattern and outlined it with black (striper). Light green: Sally Hansen Green With Envy, the blue: Jessica King Tut’s Gem, the pastel yellow: China Glaze Lemon Fizz and the pink: Julie G My Horoscope Says. Top coat is as always Seche Vite.

And this time I remembered to take photos of my right hand too…

Grundfarven er Sation Tardy Tart, en smuk lilla neon. Jeg brugte penslerne i flaskerne på hver af de følgende farver til at lave et abstraks design, og jeg outlinede med en sort striper. Den lysegrønne er Sally Hansen Green With Envy, den blå: Jessica King Tut’s Gem, den pastel gule: China Glaze Lemon Fizz pg den lyserøde: Julie G My Horoscope Says. Toplakker er som altid Seche Vite.

 

On orange

 

 

I'm in total winter denial - so the flowers on my nails keep growing!
The base color is a layering of 1 coat of Essie Meet Me At Sunset, a dark, reddish orange and over it I applied 1 coat of Sinful Cloud 9, a shimmery citrus orange. I painted my one-stroke flowers with acrylic color, and top coated with Seche Vite. 
This is an old mani, I liked it when I wore it, now not so much - but here it is anyhow :)

Jeg fortrænger fuldstændigt, at det snart er vinter, blomsterne bliver ved med at gro på mine neegle.
Grundfarven er to lakker, først Essie Meet Me At Sunset, en mørk rødlig orange og over den lagde jeg et lag Sinful Cloud 9, en appelsinfarvet lak med shimmer. Jeg malede one-stroke blomsterne med akrylfarve, før jeg lagde toplak.
Det er en gammel mani, jeg kunne godt li' den, da jeg havde den på, men nu siger den mig ikke længere så meget. Men her er den alligevel :)
